Using Power-Saving Mode
By default, your phone is set up with a power-saving mode that turns off the screen to conserve energy. Your 
phone enters power-saving mode after it has been idle for a certain period of time. You can configure the 
period of time that the phone is idle before the screen turns off. You can configure different idle timeouts for 
office hours and off hours, such as evenings and weekends.
During off hours, the message “Off Hours Mode” scrolls on the status bar. Your phone exits power-saving 
mode if a phone event occurs—for example, if the phone has an incoming call or message, or you press a 
key or tap the screen. If a screen saver is enabled on your phone, power-saving mode still occurs.
You can update the following power-saving settings:
● Office Hours When you start work and how long you’re in the office each day (see Change Your 
Office Hours).
● Timeouts The period of time the phone should be idle before the screen turns off (see Change 
Timeouts).
